Supply Chain Efficiency Analysis
Managing a supply chain involves everything—from processing work orders and ordering and managing materials—to creating and transporting products and billing customers. Various systems are used to manage these processes. Together, a firm’s processes and systems ensure an efficient supply chain operation.
Complete a production efficiency analysis of a given supply chain scenario. Create an infographic showing the processes and systems involved in managing the supply chain. Evaluate the process flow, and identify a potential problem that could disrupt the supply chain. Finally, recommend a strategy for how the operations team can proactively avoid the problem to ensure that the supply chain continues to flow.
